In the 12th Five-Year Plan, it is clearly stated that regional trunk power grids should be improved, advanced transmission technologies with large capacity, high efficiency and long distance should be developed, and relying on advanced technologies such as information, control and energy storage, the construction and transformation of urban and rural power grids should be effectively strengthened, so as to enhance the optimal allocation capacity of power grids and the reliability of power supply.
How will 20 12 information technology help power enterprises improve their competitiveness?
Information technology continues to develop.
"The informatization construction of power-related central enterprises is advancing at a high speed. Taking State Grid as an example, State Grid continues to invest in information construction every year and has made great achievements. Next, it will establish a "centralized" system deployment, including a centralized technology and management. In terms of power generation, relevant enterprises are in their infancy and have formulated development plans, such as the GD 193 project of Guodian Group, with the focus on strengthening group management. " Huang Jianyuan, vice chairman of Far Light Software and president of the company, commented on the current power informatization.
As the mainstream solution provider and software service provider in the power industry, Far Light Software serves almost all power enterprises, and is also an important participant in SG 186, an important information project of the 11th Five-Year Plan and SG-ERP, a follow-up information project of the 12th Five-Year Plan.
Huang Jianyuan believes that UHV and smart grid mentioned in the Twelfth Five-Year Plan will be the focus of future development, which will promote the reform of power grid system. Power enterprises will continue to operate in groups and strengthen intensive and refined management, which will inevitably increase the continuous investment in informatization and bring huge growth space for management software.
In order to adapt to the transformation, the electric power industry takes "horizontal business penetration, vertical intensive management and centralized allocation of resources" as its long-term management goal. To this end, Far Light Software will also help power customers realize the transformation from extensive management to intensive management by providing comprehensive service capabilities of "software+consulting+integration".
"The infrastructure management and control products of Far Light Software have completed the SASAC pilot project in Guodian Group. At the same time, Yuanguang recently built an ECP platform to improve the operational efficiency of products. " Huang Jianyuan revealed that in recent years, Yuanguang Software has continuously increased its investment in R&D, including the establishment of an R&D center in Wuhan Optics Valley. The number of high-end R&D personnel has exceeded 100, and many research achievements have been made, including new products such as infrastructure control and material control.
In the enterprise itself, Huang Jianyuan hopes that after several years of scale expansion, Yuanguang Software will implement a steady business strategy from 20 12, and change from scale expansion to efficiency expansion and investment expansion, so as to improve efficiency and expand investment while maintaining stable expansion of personnel and maintain stable growth of performance.
New technologies are widely used.
In the past two years, new technologies such as Internet of Things, mobile Internet and cloud computing have emerged one after another, with broad application prospects. But in the application of the industry, it needs to be explored again, especially in the power industry.
"New technologies can be integrated into solutions to effectively solve the important challenges of calculation of power system and information processing at present and in the future." When talking about the relationship between new technologies and the power industry, Huang Jianyuan said that with the improvement of the interconnection degree of power systems and the strengthening of the trend of "intelligence" of power systems, the storage and analysis of massive power data streams will put forward higher and higher requirements for data processing of power information systems, and power enterprises will inevitably respond with new technologies.
After cloud computing is integrated into the system, it can provide new flexibility advantages for power enterprises. For example, in view of the characteristics of many management formats and long management chain of power group, the system can realize the deployment mode of multi-level data centers, change the traditional system architecture, form cloud services of various business function modules through reasonable customization of business functions, and deploy them to "cloud computing" platforms, such as financial services and electricity sales services. As long as the enterprise obtains computing resources from the resource pool on demand, it can form a scalable and efficient enterprise-level private cloud, which can effectively solve the storage and performance problems brought by the massive information data of very large business systems.
"In the application of the Internet of Things, we have introduced asset mobile inventory solutions for enterprises in the fields of fuel, asset equipment and supply chain business through technologies such as RFID and GPS, which can collect, process and operate data information more quickly, effectively improve enterprise management efficiency and reduce customer maintenance costs, thereby enhancing competitiveness." Huang Jianyuan said.
Enterprises pay more attention to service.
In Huang Jianyuan's view, the core competitiveness of Far Light Software is a profound understanding and grasp of the technology, business and management essence of the power industry, and a series of software products developed on this basis to meet the management needs of the power industry and its ever-changing changes.
Based on this, this year's product research and development of high-beam software will focus on improving business application systems, increase investment in GRIS product upgrades and new product research and development, and introduce cloud technology, memory computing, mobile access and so on. Technically, we will launch upgraded products such as infrastructure management, safety production management, risk and internal control management and cost management in business, and it will take about three years to launch upgraded products covering the core business of power grid enterprises and the whole life cycle of power generation enterprises.
In terms of business, Far Light Software will expand to the upstream and downstream of the power industry, not only focusing on the extension of finance to business and the promotion of new products, but also focusing on the market expansion of auxiliary industries, diversified collective enterprises, rural power and local power.
Huang Jianyuan said that in view of the industry trend of "software industry is service industry", Far Light Software will provide more and more service products in the next step, including business services, security services and information integration services in addition to consulting, training, implementation, operation and maintenance services.
It is reported that last year, the revenue of Far Light Software exceeded 640 million yuan. This year, Far Light Software will pay more attention to management consulting business. By increasing the recruitment and training of professionals, a high-quality consulting service team will be established to provide more comprehensive, rapid and accurate information support for the business decision-making of power enterprises and provide new impetus for the development of power enterprises.
